How do you prevent Saucecrafing

Is there a way to prevent mafia from auto crafting sauce potions when you aren't a Sauceror?
For me it has resulted in a lot of regent/fruit wastage.

putting "/" in front somewhat works but in most cases it is unintentionally omitted.
It also makes typing /use "item" to be longer.

If there isn't an inbuilt function atm, could it be added.

KoLmafia will saucecraft a potion for you if doing so is cheaper than buying the finished potion. If you believe this is not the case, give an example, please.

- What was the price of a reagent in the mall?
- What was the price of a fruit in the mall?
- What was the price of the finished potion in the mall?

If the sum of the first two is less than the last one, saucecrafting saved you money.

tomato: 70
scrumptious reagent : ~ 2k
tomato juice of powerful power : ~830

As a Sauceror crafting would produce 3 potions, averaging 690 per (saving 140 per)
As a non-S crafting only produces 1 potion, averaging 2070 per (losing over 1.2k per)

In most cases doing it as a Sauceror would be profitable but I don't think mafia is taking this into account when you are a different class.

> inv reagent

scrumptious reagent (642)

> use tomato juice

Neither can I. KoLmafia definitely takes your class - Sauceror vs. non-Sauceror - into account when calculating yield.

Can we see YOUR CLI output to compare to hola's, please?

Thanks.

Also, type the following into the CLI and tell us what it says:

get valueOfInventory

Isn't this already solved by using a buyScript? I thought that the potionBuy script was written for this very purpose...

It seems like this is occurring because I don't tick the "buy from mall" box.
It is going directly to

> use tomato juice of pow

When I DID tick t, the output was the same.

It's great that my reagent problem is solved.
But with this I would also be concerned with the auto-purchase of more expensive.

Use the "buy" command beforehand. Then you can turn off automatic Mall buying, AND Mafia will know exactly what you want.
Code: 
> buy tomato juice of pow; use tomato juice of pow;
You can even make an alias for it:
Code: 
> alias buyuse => buy %%; use %%;

String successfully aliased.
buyuse => buy %%; use %%;

> buyuse 2 tomato juice of pow

EDIT:
By the way, "/use" is a KoL Chat command. When you type one of those commands in the gCLI; Mafia passes them on to KoL, so what you get is the result of the KoL command without any Mafia intervention.

The one I use heavily, for some reason, is "/aa" to change my autoattack.
